I need help from someone that has installed an OMP adapter before. I'm concerned with the 4 small plastic tubes that have to be relocated to the left of the coolant hose. I fear that they could break or kink from being forced to bend opposite from their normal shape. Have you had issues with this before?

That is one fine a$$. I want to see your adapter

 

This is mentioned in the Sohn Adapter thread, did you read that one?

Dominion THIS is for you

- Once the OMP is off, I moved the lines over to the other side of the coolant pipe. This is tougher than you might think as these lines, although clear plastic, are very stiff and I was scared of breaking them. But I eventually got them over. BTW, this is the time to wrap them to protect them from the coolant hose clips - I used a piece of small coolant hose wrap I took off when I put on the Mazsport mod and electrical taped. I also turned all the coolant hose clip grabs away from these lines.

 

yes yes I've read all that but this doesn't answer my question..."did anyone ever have these tubes break or kink?"

 

ive seen OMP lines kink and snap, they get very brittle with age.
